U.  S.  Department  of  Agriculture, 

Bureau  of  Statistics, 
WasJdngton,  D.  C,  March  21,  1012. 
Sir:  I  have  tho  honor  to  transmit  lioroAWth  manuscript  |)r('j)ared 
by  Ro^'al  T.  JMcKenna,  of  this  bureau,  Avhich  contains  a  compilation, 
first,  of  the  annual  and  average  production  of  important  agricultural 
products  in  the  loading  producing  countries,  \\\i\\  the  j)ercentage  whicli 
each  contributes  to  the  so-called  ''world"  production;  second,  similar 
data  respecting  exports  of  certain  agricultural  products;  and,  third, 
data  respecting  imports  of  certain  agricultural  ])n)ducts. 

The  compilation  is  useful  for  ready  reference.  ^Much  of  the  cur- 
rent information  of  crop  production  and  movement  is  unintelhgible 
to  tho  average  reader,  because  comparative  figures  are  not  given. 
Statistical  data  are  of  comparative  value;  for  instance,  a  statement 
of  the  yield  of  wheat  in  Russia  this  year  would  have  little  value  to 
most  j)ersons  until  they  learned  tho  average  yield  to  which  this 
year's  yield  may  be  compared,  and,  also,  the  relative  importance 
of  Russia  as  a  wheat-producing  country. 

To  s\ipply  such  data  for  comparison  this  manuscript  has  been 
prepared,  which  I  recommend  to  bo  published  as  C'u'cidar  No.  31  of 
the  Bureau  of  Statistics,  entitled  "Annual  and  Average  Production  of 
and  International  Trade  in  Important  Agricultural  Products,  by 
Countries." 

Very  respectfully, 

Victor  II.  Olmsted,

ANNUAL  AND  AVERAGE  PRODUCTION  OF  AND 

INTERNATIONAL  TRADE  IN  IMPORTANT 

AGRICULTURAL  PRODUCTS, 

BY  COUNTRIES. 


Annual  statistics  of  production  and  distribution,  to  liavo  practical 
value,  must  be  correlated  with  comparable  statistics.  A  statement 
that  a  specified  country  has  produced  this  year  100,000,000  bushels 
of  wheat  has  in  itself  little  meaning.  The  query  naturally  arises :  Is 
this  production  unusually  large,  indicating  a  liberal  supply,  or  does 
it  indicate  a  short  supply,  likely  to  cause  a  tendency  toward  liigher 
prices?  The  mere  statement  of  the  year's  production  docs  not  give 
sufficient  information  to  answer  the  queries. 

Furthermore,  is  the  country  in  question  an  important  factor, 
either  in  the  production  or  in  the  international  trade  in  this  product  ? 

Crop  news,  especially  that  which  appears  in  the  daily  or  weekl)'' 
press,  frecjuently  contains  bare  facts  relative  to  the  indicated  pro- 
duction of  a  specified  country,  without  comparative  data.  Traders, 
who  are  constantly  engaged  in  the  business,  may  be  able  to  compre- 
hend such  information  readily,  but  many  readers,  although  interested 
in  the  subject,  may  not  be  similarly  well  informed  nor  have  the 
necessary  comparative  data  in  hand.  For  the  purpose  of  having  in 
convenient  form  data  of  the  average  production  of  and  trade  in 
certain  crops  in  important  countries,  the  following  tables  have  been 
prepared. 

Late,  and,  in  most  cases,  official  data  have  been  used  in  every 
instance. 

The  figures  of  production  in  the  United  States  relate  only  to  con- 
tinental United  States,  except  that  those  relating  to  colfeo  and 
sugar  production  include  Porto  llico  and  Hawaii. 

The  expression  "world's  total  production"  of  crops,  used  as  in 
trade  circles,  includes  only  countries  for  which  trustworthy  data 
are  available.  Ollicial  data  can  be  obtauied  from  most  Govern- 
ments, but  there  are  a  few  large  countries  for  which  the  official  data 
are  incomplete;  and  some,  such  as  (^hina  and  Persia,  for  which 
ofiicial  data  of  production  are  lacldng.

8  PRODUCTION   AND   TRADE   IN   AGRICULTURAL   PRODUCTS. 

In  the  figures  of  "world"  crop  production  the  crops  of  wheat  and 
flaxseed  harvested  in  the  Southern  Hemisphere  from  November  to 
February  of  any  year  are  coupled  with  those  harvested  in  the 
Northern  Hemisphere  in  the  succeeding  autumn. 

Statistics  of  the  exports  and  imports  of  products  specified  in  this 
circular  represent  substantially  the  international  trade  of  the  world. 
It  should  not  be  expected  that  the  totals  of  the  world's  exports  and 
imports  in  the  same  year  will  agree.  Among  sources  of  disagreement 
are  these:  (1)  Imports  received  in  the  year  subsequent  to  year  of 
export;  (2)  different  periods  of  time  covered  in  the  year  of  the 
various  countries;  (3)  lack  of  uniformity  among  different  countries 
in  the  classification  of  goods;  (4)  different  practices  and  varying 
degrees  of  failure  in  recording  countries  of  origin  and  ultimate  desti- 
nation; (5)  different  practices  of  recording  reexported  goods;  (6) 
different  methods  of  treating  free  ports. 

The  exports  given  are  of  domestic  produce,  with  a  few  exceptions, 
and  the  imports  are  imports  for  consumption  as  far  as  it  is  feasible  and 
consistent  so  to  express  the  facts.  While  there  are  some  inevitable 
omissions,  on  the  other  hand  there  are  some  duplications  because  of 
reshipments  that  do  not  appear  as  such  in  official  reports.  For  the 
United  Kingdom  import  figures  refer  to  imports  for  consumption, 
when  available,  otherwise  total  imports  less  exports  of  "foreign  and 
colonial  merchandise." 

The  exports  and  imports  of  the  United  States  include  Alaska,  Porto 
Rico,  and  Hawau. 

A  revision  of  the  international  trade  tables  is  now  being  made  in 
the  Division  of  Production  and  Distribution  of  the  Bureau  of  Sta- 
tistics. This  revision  seems  advisable  on  account  of  (1)  a  change  in 
the  official  equivalent  of  the  kilogram  recently  adopted  by  the 
bureau;  (2)  a  failure  in  a  few  cases  to  use  exactly  the  same  classifi- 
cation from  year  to  year  for  such  composite  groups  as  sugar,  wool, 
and  oil  cake;  (3)  new  returns  received  from  important  countries. 
The  revised  totals  for  world's  exports  and  imports  will  therefore 
differ  slightly  in  some  cases  from  the  totals  published  in  the  Year- 
books of  the  department  and  used  in  this  circular.  This  revision  is 
being  made  as  rapidly  as  practicable.
